Lyrics & Music : Shiina Ringo
| 作詞・作曲： しいなりんご

This is a very interesting song. "Ringo" here is the word for apple, but it is also Shiina's last name. Therefore, she seems to be portraying herself as an apple tree. An Akebia is a type of shrub, that apparently bears fruit as well.

You want
To know my name
But now I can't remember it
I'm sad
Please give me, who is hard working
A name
Please do so
However you like
In May my flowers bloom
Give me a suitable name
The opening of the akebia
Is a sign of autumn colors
The seasons quietly pass
Does that make you sad?
Wipe your tears
And please raise your head
You see, soon
I too will bear fruit
In winter I'll put in some nectar
And send it to you
My longing is
To be human
It's wonderful that they can laugh and cry
I've just now learned my name
It's "Ringo", just as you say
Every year I'll send you
The tastiest fruit
Have some
The fruit of sin
I've just now learned my name
It's "Ringo", just as you say
Every year I'll send you
The tastiest fruit
Have some
The fruit of sin
